In addition to the standard
text that is displayed, titles, footnotes, and axis labels have alternate
short text. This short text is specified as a GTL option in the SAS
program that defines the graph.
If there is not enough
space to display the standard text, then the short text is displayed.
For example, if you resize a graph and there is not enough space to
display the whole axis label, then the short axis label is displayed.
If you later enlarge the graph so that enough space is made available,
then the long label is displayed.
You can override the
short text by changing the text of the title, footnote, or axis label.
Once you change the text, then only the new modified text is displayed
regardless of the size of the graph.
